Awesome staff! Very friendly and helpful. Pulled in and no Reserved spots open due to campers in them after dark but the manager was quick to clear them out. Very nice showers! Hot water for days! Clean store and well stocked. The Internet was super fast too! Added to favorite spots.

Most of the employees are nice. Plenty of cashiers to get you in and out. I think they have hot food Round the Clock. Store was clean. 10/10...(Snapchat)Snapchat has made it easier for us truck drivers to communicate.My Snapchat is (klwcowboys)They have snap map, we can see each other on the map, it does so much more. I will make sure every friend I get you get. You can download it on the iPhone and Android.Only if youre good people..

Awesome water pressure and super clean showers. Really friendly staff!

Review №7

Employees are friendly most of the time. They are experiencing supply shortages so coolers are often slim pickings, but if you pay to park at this location, they actually make people move that havent paid.

Since when has this company allowed UNLEASHED dogs in the store?! Isnt that a liability? What would the health dept say about this? Pets should not be allowed in the stores !!

This place has been under construction for a while hopefully they get things running and everything starts looking much better and gets a little life now just for the structure of the parking lot which that is something that is probably going to be very permanent and I give it three stars because it is very uncomfortable as soon as you get to the pumps to get out of this pilot you got to go through the parking lot making it extremely uncomfortable and I wish it had a better design and another exit so you can just go in and out with these bathrooms as well need a little love other than that we got to come back to get another review as soon as its completely finished

Dirty dirty dirty I had to buy towels to clean the shower.. toilet with urine stains... shower full of mold... boy lady manager said truckers are dirty so what do I expect... I’m a very clean WOMAN ...and paying customer .... and there’s a pandemic....we deserve respect.... she clearly shouldn’t be the manager...

Review №12

Very bad on Pilot’s name. No marking for reserve parking. Attendant will wake you up in night and ask either to pay or leave. I came here for 10 hrs DOT rest break. There were many parking spots available when I arrived but no marking for paid parking. Forced 4 truck operators to pay. Going to stop fueling at Pilot /Flying J. I don’t like people with excuses and for not being professional. I will contact their head office and report.Addition: just another one for shower.Shower number 6 mold building up everywhere on floor and walls.

Am 7 years commercial 18th wheel driving experience and pilot fuel guy. This pilot in sulfur springs tx thier mechanics are the worst I never seen. They even let other mechanic hustlers outside from thier store come an do bad things to longtime pilot customer drivers. They have no experience what so ever. Loves truck stop cross the street much better much professional ppl there.

Its Very Sad when you have to go outside and take a phone call from your Dispatcher because the music was so VERY LOUD you couldnt even hear to talk. You couldnt even hear the person standing next to you.Then you go to Arbys to get something to eat and the counter girl is more worried about everyone else but the truck drivers. I waited for 7 minutes and she NEVER looked my way another driver said he had been waiting for his food for over 10 minutes. But the drive thru got FABULOUS service.Will not stop here again.If you do thats up to you.

Review №16

I was trying to buy cigarettes here and they wouldnt sell it to me with price advertised in the store instead they want sell it to me with an another price telling me the price has been updated in the system therefore the price posted is not valid. The price posted is to lure people then theyll rip you off. Most pilot truck stop practice this illegal false advertising.

Clean store & very nice. My only complaint is whoever cleans showers is outside while drivers are waiting on showers. Showers are were empty but needed to be cleaned.. As a driver time is money.

Clean, nice staff...im in hear several times a week to shower and probably 2 out if 3 times the water is never hot...if you want a hot shower take it across the street to loves or down the road to another pilot...place is a cluster fk most of the time trying to get in or out the place, same for the loves across the street

Review №24

This is a pretty good stop despite the lack of more parking spaces for trucks. The staff is professional and very accommodating. Food is available until pretty late in the evening unlike some other pilots where you get there at 8pm and you have to resort to snacks. Trucks run 24/7 all roller foods should as well. If your planning on driving by I recommend this stop to fuel up your vehicle and yourself. Safe travels!!!!

The music they playing today is very strange and weird today..its giving me a huge headache today. I didnt like it at all..its not country or rap or old school.. i dont like this pilot anymore...it used to be a good place to stop...but i hate it now..never come back

Review №28

Pilot truck stops are one of my preferred locations on the road. Locations are usually convenient and clean. The pumps are easy to access and are well maintained. Bathroom is clean with enough facilities so that there isn’t usually a wait.Fountain drinks are usually good; syrup to carbonation ratio is correct and there are enough lids, straws, etc. available. You have a wide variety of snacks available of varying degrees of healthy. Overall a much more consistent and reliable experience.

No one working in Arbys wearing a mask, or gloves. Fuel desk not one single person was wearing mask over their nose. When I ask the girl checking me out to wear her mask correctly she rolled her eyes.Wont even get started on the amount of people in the store without masks.

Review №38

I always fill up before & after a trip, here! Gas prices are usually the best in town. You can get snacks, drinks, &/or a quick meal before heading out. Its well lit & there are always people around, so its pretty safe. Plus they have a lot of forgotten travel supplies (phone chargers, movies, toothpaste)!

Review №39

Wonderful Staff!! My husband and daughter entered the store around midnight to use the restroom and the attendant went out of his way to open a shower for them so that they wouldnt have to enter the mens restroom. We didnt ask for that, he was just kind an observant enough to offer. Thats something you dont see often, courtesy. Very refreshing to know good people still exist. The store was very clean and organized, the shelves were stocked fully and neatly. Will definitely be stopping on our way back through and on any future trips through the area!

Friendly, helpful young men working the counter tonight. Restrooms were clean and serviceable. I like Pilot and FlyingJ for the good selection of travel items. Diesel prices arent always the lowest around but the stations always seem clean and well supplied and the staff members are generally always courteous.

Staff is incredibly rude, entitled, and ignorant. And if customers are required to cover their nose and mouth, I expect employees to do the same.

Review №52

Overal its not a bad facility. Just would be nice if they had Rv parking out front like most Pilots do. Also kind of a long wait for a shower. They could put another employee back there to help clean showers when the one employee gets busy/overwhelmed. Also more than one towel would be nice...:)

Review №53

I tried used my credit card to pay the gasoline dispenser on Oct 7 2019 (did not work) and someone used the card info in this place to try and charge 151.00 on it.This caused my credit card to get blocked so I did not get the charge but how can this be possible. How does someone get the card info after putting it in the gasoline machine?On the other hand everyone was very friendly, and the place is very nice.

Horrible Pilot!! Dirty, dirty, dirty!! Did I mention dirty? Need a shower? You will be waiting forever for the short, mentally challenged guy to clean one. Coffee counter is always sticky. There are a few nice employees.

Review №56

Currently this location is undergoing construction and half the parking lot is closed off. For someone traveling with a 35 foot travel trailer, its difficult to find a place to park it once youve finished filling up. There is a space at the very front along the grassy area, but for some reason, people decide to randomly park their cars there instead of the parking spaces by the door. From what I can see thats already been completed, this place will look fantastic when they get done, its nice to see that some of these older stores are getting upgraded.

Review №57

If you have a GoodSam card you can save 5 cents on regular gas and 8 cents on diesel, and there gas & diesel is always fresh, also good place to fill those munchies if you know what I mean, also has some interesting souvenirs to take home too.

We stop here every time we go through Sulpher Springs. It is always so clean and the staff is always friendly. Great selections, quick service, and positive attitudes make this Pilot our favorite. Parking is sometimes atrocious but, generally not that big of an issue.

I had to go to loves to get fuel on several occasions because my card was declined at Pilot because Pilots got a 150 Dollar Plus hold on the card used at the pump. Ive never had this issue before anywhere Im going across the United States until now.

Review №62

Well. It was closed when I went. The exit is terrible off of the highway (not their fault). If you exit, heading west, go through the stop sign and dont take a left at the stop sign.This locations fuel pumps were not working when I went. So, thats the reason for the two stars. Also, I have been here in the past and this place has a small parking lot. Expect some congestion.

Good pilot with Arbys inside and good amount of showers. Only issue is the amount of parking isnt alot, but thats just the costs of property nowadays.

Im editing my review due to the fact that this place has been completely renovated. The store looks really nice. The prices are great. Most employees seem very helpful however one of the managers seems to hate life in general; including all the employees there. I was not impressed by her attitude towards customers and staff and the lack of interest put towards her job in general. Rebecca was her name and I doubt Ill be back. There is a nice gas station right across the bridge with amazing donuts and a super friendly staff Ill give my business to that place.

SAMANTHA (manager) so my husband has always fueled and park at pilots anywhere he goes but on Monday July 29 my husband parked here in Sulphur Spring miles and miles from home and alone he got really sick and couldnt even move so he was able to get help from another driver who went to try to get some medicine for my husband inside the pilot he mentioned to Samantha who was the manager that night what was happening so Samantha went above and beyond and walked to my husband truck to check on him and offer him a water, Help and assistance . Samantha thank you for caring and going beyond your responsibilities and helping my Husband.

WARNING! IF HEADED WEST ON I-30 and you exit for the Loves and the Pilot DO NOT TURN RIGHT AT THE STOP SIGN, GO FORWARD UNDER THE OVERPASS THEN RIGHT.IF U TURN RIGHT AT THE STOP SIGN YOU CAN ONLY MAKE A RIGHT AT THE NEXT STOP SIGN. SULPHER SPRINGS COPS ARE WATCHING AND IF YOU MAKE A U TURN TO GO BACK TO THE TRUCK STOPS... THEY WILL GET YOU! IT SHOULD BE MARKED LETTING DRIVERS KNOW TO KEEP FORWARD UNDER THE OVERPASS.... THIS IS ONLY ON THE WEST BOUND SIDE.

Review №76

One of the worst pilots Ive ever been to. Just needed to scale and the employees didnt have paper in the printer and spent 15min acting like my ticket just went missing. All the empty parking are reserved spots b/c lord knows they need to squeeze every penny from the people that haul their goods. Avoid this place like a 75cent lot lizard, Loves next door is almost built.

Was waiting at counter to get food from PJ Fresh, while girl finished getting a customers pizza. She seen me waiting, but when two guys came up she waited on them completely ignoring me. Not the first pilot that has done this type of thing. Serving the locals or tourists at the expense of the truckers.

Parked at 9pm last spot on the lot.Woken up at 11pm was told to move because Im in a reserved spot. Yet no sign, or markings indicating it was reserved anywhere. Even the pilot employee said its not lables and its on them. Was still threatened to get towed if I didnt move.If you are going to have reserved parking, label the damn spots

Review №91

This review is looking from a professional drivers point of view. Not enough parking. By 4pm its pretty much full. It needs a lot more spaces. Store is small as well as the showers. I cannot speak for the mens restroom but the womens is small with only three stalls. There is no laundry. If you dont like Arbys you are out of luck. The best thing I can say is that it was decently clean. The area needs a very large truck stop.

Review №98

Terrible. I used to stop here all the time. Happened to pull in one day and parked on the south side of building. Had to fill out some paperwork while there and it was a very hot day, so sat in my pickup with the AC going. I’m not bothering anyone, but apparently it didn’t suit a Pilot employee who pulled in after me. He drives a late model Jeep. INTIMIDATION is the key word here. Guess he thought he could scare me off. Really stupid to pull that kind of bologna. The guy assumes you’re there to try and steal his Jeep. GOOD GOSH ya BAFOON!!!Needless to say, his intimidation tactics don’t work on me. I went NOWHERE and finished doing what I needed to do that day. What planet do y’all source your employees from? Planet CRACK perhaps? We all now know why your website has certain features disabled for reporting problem employees. You’re aware of the employee issues, but you at corporate HQ have no intentions of taking necessary measures to correct any of it. There’s no other valid reasons for doing what was done to your website.
